Osmosis in Cells
PLANT
cells
TURGID
healthy plants cells
gives plants
support
cell membrane pushes
against cell wall
opposing force from cell
wall means pp = max
FLACCID
plant cell
loses water
plant leaves
wilt
PLASMOLYSED
continued loss of
water
vacuole shrinks to extent
that cell membrane pulls
away from cell wall
Incipient
Plasmolysis
point where wp
outside is exactly
same as inside
cytoplasm just
coming away
from cell wall
when 50% cells
plasmolysed incipient
plasmolysis occurs.
wp outside cell = wp
inside cell
pp = 0 so
wp = ws
ANIMAL
cells
animal cells do NOT have
cell wall - nothing stop cell
expansion when water enters
LYSIS
cell put in
hypotonic solution
cell gains water
by osmosis
cell bursts
CRENATION
cell put in
hypertonic
solution
cells lose water
by osmosis
cells shrink +
shrivel up
